Roger Williams was a man who was ahead of his time. He was a Christian and a minister, but he found the Puritans to be far too intolerant and rigid in the way they treated dissenting views. Williams believed in what we today would call freedom of religion: he believed people had the right to find their own path to God. He did not accept the idea that only one religion (the Puritan religion) should be allowed to dominate, and he certainly did not believe that dissent should be punished. In fact, when he founded Rhode Island, he welcomed even non-Christians-- one of the first synagogues in the region was started in his state. He supported the idea of women speaking in public, and he also believed the native peoples (then called Indians) were being discriminated against-- he did not feel it was right for the colonists to arbitrarily take their land. These were just some of the views that got Roger Williams expelled from Massachusetts in 1636.
